Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen has accused police boss Hillary Mutyambai of "stoking hatred and tension" through his selective application of the law. The senator was responding to a tweet by Mutyambai who was dismissing claims of bias in enforcing public gathering laws. Mutyambai while acknowledging complaints about the selective application of enforcing the law insisted there is no risk of violence or attack on some groups. "There are groups that have not attracted any form of violence while others have attracted violence, hence the varied authorizations," the IG said. "If anything goes wrong in our country especially because you are stoking hatred and tension through selective application of the law you will be held personally liable even if you will have retired.
